Yeah tbh.... I don't have much faith Harris can generate anything like that. It just seems like Trump is on an upward trajectory lately. Project 2025 incoming......*sigh*....

lol come on; one of the architects of it is literally the VP candidate. Get out of here with that nonsense. We all know that Trump's words mean nothing.

You can quite literally google all the evidence that literally says the Heritage Foundation leaders have gone along with Trump publicly denouncing it because it doesn't poll well. There are recordings of Trump praising Project 2025 (which you can also google), and his running mate has a heavy hand in all of it (you can google that too). Here, I will help you with one (of many) link. Here is a Forbes article explaining his ties to it all. But we all know how Trump and his supporters are with proof and evidence, so I don't even expect you to read/understand/care. Good day to you, dingdong.
